Manage Enrollments Using a CSV File

When using a CSV file to manage enrollment, it's important to use the correct formatting. You can download a sample file with the correct formatting by clicking Download the sample CSV in the Manage Enrollments > Manage Enrollments via CSV slide-out panel.

Note the following for CSV files:

  • The maximum file size is 3MB.
  • Dates are formatted as YYYY-MM-DD in the sample CSV file but might be displayed differently depending on the program you're using to view the file.
  • Fields and columns must be separated by a single character delimiter, typically a comma or semicolon.
  • Each row must be terminated by a new line.
  • All rows must have the same number of columns in the same order.
  • The first row can be a header that contains the column names.
  • Data within each field is interpreted as a sequence of characters or plain text.
  • Any field can be quoted within double-quote characters. A field should be quoted when it contains one or more special characters.
  • Leading and trailing spaces are considered part of the data in a field.
  • Certain spreadsheet tools will alter the format of data if it's not imported correctly.
  • The username column in the sample CSV refers to each user's Dayforce Learning user name.
